Scheme is not more minimalist than C.L. in practice; it's standardization is simply more fragmented and has nested layers, often by different organizations, that implementations can support, and then most implementations go well above even that. Different Scheme implementations tend to share a common base but then tend to provide functionality above that, often shared between different implementations as well.
